Ode to VR

[Gaunter Vapes]

My great lament for this game, is that EA chose to release Grid Legends on Quest 2 exclusive VR, without wheel support. No one with other headsets can play it through steam, we can't enjoy the Grid experience. Not in VR, like many of their titles, F1, Dirt 2, no, they needed Meta. It's a slap in the face to those of us who own a VR kit and hoping so much, Grid legends would release with support for such. It's the perfect game for chilling and the sales would expand, if Grid Legends was released through steam...with VR on demand:)

To the devs, consider my complaint as a complement to the game...still, please steam VR, it's been too long:(

The game is dead and sales were rather low. No VR can change that.

Yet around the clock, 24/7 there is always lobbies for pvp. That's not a dead game. This game has multi-platform support and a huge overall fan base.

VR would change this franchise for the positive. VR racers are hungry for a non sim title to race with, go read the VR posts for upcoming Test Drive Unlimited: Solar Crown. Realise that most of the people making those comments are currently racing in sims, me included. Many of those same peeps would try Grid if it came to VR.

VR is overlooked thus far from most non-sim titles and open world racers, eliminating a ton of 'no VR, no race' peeps. Once you race in VR it's hard to go back. The first non sim racer to incorporate this untapped market will have their game explode in popularity.

And here we are with F1 23 getting VR on launch. Same developer, same engine. Why does Grid Legends not get VR support on PC too?

Legends is budget title without any players. Nobody cared even about bugfixing.

because F1 is a massive cash cow, especially after DtS. Whereas GRID is a good racer that's been overshadowed by flagship titles (Forza/GT) that get absurd budgets from Microsoft and Sony.

If you can dial it in, Grid is pretty neat in VR. Works with ReShade and the 3D depth module when pumped over virtual desktop.

Takes some messing about to scale the game to a decent image through VD while not stretching it too much to lose graphical quality. If you can overlook the flaws, the actual focus of the centred track and car is 90% decent on par with what they did with F1-22.

Not great, but working and better than VorpX does racing titles.

I got the game on Quest. It looks like a steaming pile of doo doo. The graphics are worse than PS2. I would say, it's even worse than PS1. It was the wrong game, and the wrong team to port to standalone VR. To this day, I don't understand why EA didn't choose FireMonkey, a studio with mobile experience, to port Real Racing to the Quest instead.

You aren't missing anything.
